Hai Au Lang Nuong, Canley Vale

This is one of my favourite Vietnamese restaurants.  
 I absolutely adore the dishes they serve here.
Every single dish tastes authentic, fresh and delicious.
The menu is extensive and quite adventurous when it comes to exotic food.
I can't wait to go back and try other things on their menu, crocodile meat perhaps?

Miss Chu, Bondi Beach

I fell in love with the amazing flavours of Vietnamese food
when I first visited Vietnam ten years ago.
It's healthy, fresh and flavourful with a mix of sweet and sour tastes.

The meal we had at Miss Chu was good but I thought it was lacking that wow factor.
Maybe I should not have expected too much (from all the hype).

What I really love though was the Seafood Bánh Xèo. You should give it a try.

Cabra Crawl with Sydney Food Bloggers

Wow! I was one of six food bloggers selected to join the "Cabra Crawl."  I must admit though that this was my first time to meet some fellow food bloggers.  I was a bit nervous but otherwise super excited and honoured to have been part of a wonderful experience.

The food selections were excellently chosen by Thang Ngo of Noodlies.
First stop was to have pho at where else but Pho Viet.

How absolutely comforting this pho was!

Vinata's Hot Bread

Vinata's Pork Roll was a hit!
I later brought my hubby to this place and he absolutely enjoyed their Pork Roll.

Sugar Cane Juice (Nuoc Mia) at Thu Phung.

Thang Ngo of Noodlies and me enjoying our sugar cane juice.

The sugar canes are simply squashed in those machines and the juice extracted.

The cumquats were interesting additions providing a depth of flavour.

Goi Cuon  (Vietnamese Spring Rolls) at Bau Truong

Ca Zuc Banh Trang (Fish Curry) and Fried Sesame Rice Paper at Bau Truong

A stand out dish would be this! Great combination of flavours and loved the crunchy Asian feel of the rice paper.

Banh Xeo (Vietnamese Pancake)

Our last stop... Cafe Nho.
Just off the main street.

There's no doubt that Cabramatta is nothing short of a foodie's dream.  It's a vibrant busy place and emerging as a foodie's treasure trove in Sydney's South West. There's just so much waiting to be discovered- sights to see, culture to explore, history to learn and  of course, food to taste. Cabramatta is indeed a foodie's gold mine.

From Across the Kitchen Table would like to thank Thang of Noodlies, Fairfield City Council, Feast Magazine, Royal Umbrella and Lenovo.
